Default Planet X?

I just read an article from a few years ago debunking the Planet X swingby and mass destruction that was supposed to occur in 2003. Now i heard that the same thing is supposed to happen next year.

Is this a bunch of hogwash created by those who invented 2003?

thanks!

Hi danwayfilms, welcome to BAUT.
Short answer... yes, it is complete bunk. This is the first I've heard of a Planet X visit in 2009, can you give a link or reference?

Hey. Thank you..

I can't find the exact video i saw.. but if you type in "Plant X 2009" into youtube you will find an abundance of info about how it will come in around 2009 for a "first phase" then return in 2012 to kill 90% of us or whatever.

Not true, but if it was, that would sure ruin my sophmore year!

Sorry, my connections are too slow to go searching youtube. Right off the bat, this tells you how silly this is. How could this thing be on a 3 year long orbit (here in 2009 and back in 2012), but no one has ever seen it. Sorry, our knowledge of celestial mechanics are very good and that doesn't make any sense.

This has been discussed ad nauseum in the Conspiracy Theories forum. Try http://www.bautforum.com/search.php?searchid=1009917 and pick a thread, any thread.

And, welcome to BAUT!
